Sara

Happy BIRTHDAY SARA!!!!

I can't believe it but today you are 11 years old. It's crazy how the time flies by as most parents would attest because it seems that only yesterday you were a tiny little bubbly girl who had all the answers and could amaze adults with your vocabulary and logic. Your cute face could light up an entire room and I was so proud to call you my daughter.

Now you are becoming the young lady that I know God wants you to be and you are such a joy to us.

There will be many challenges that you face over the years but always know that first and foremost God loves you. Secondly we love you more than you'll ever know. You also have an amazing extended family who loves you and will always be there for you.

You are an awesome daughter and all a dad could ask for, I'm very blessed to have you in my life and I thank God daily that He is letting me take care of you. You have such a nurturing spirit. After my surgery you always wanted to stay with me and take care of me and I really appreciated that. You have a tender heart to help people and I love that about you. We'll have our ups and downs but know that you'll always be my little Sara Bear and that nothing can ever take your place in my life.

You are an amazing big sister! You are Anna's hero, role model and best friend. You've always been an great big sister and looked out for Boo Boo and I'm very grateful for that. You two have a bond that cannot be duplicated or broken. Thank you for being such a great big sister, watching you two together grow and become closer over the years has always been such a joy.

So Happy birthday baby! I hope it's the best birthday yet and I can't wait to see what the coming year has in store for you and our family. I love you!

Dad
